Shure debuts Stem ecosystem and Microflex ecosystem

CHICAGO, June 1, 2021—As meetings continue to evolve in today’s hybrid workforce, the desire for a complete AV conferencing solution that sounds great and is user-friendly has never been in more demand. Shure, a global leader in audio technology, recognizes this and is extending their offerings to additional markets later this year.

 Following the acquisition of Stem Audio in late 2020, Shure is redefining their award-winning conferencing portfolio in a unique way. This will reinforce the market-leading position of Shure’s Microflex product line while adding Stem Ecosystem solutions as the optimal proposition for end-users seeking straightforward audio for their daily conferencing needs. Together, Shure’s Stem Ecosystem and Microflex Ecosystem solutions offer customers a choice of complete audio systems for a best-in-class experience for any meeting without compromising on performance or ease of deployment.

Effortless Audio with Stem Ecosystem
Better audio doesn’t have to be complicated. With Stem Ecosystem solutions, anyone has the freedom to mix and match devices to create the perfect pickup in any collaboration space. Since Stem Ecosystem products were designed for anyone and any room, customers can easily design, install, and manage their meeting rooms. Plus, the devices are backed by a robust platform full of tools designed to make the process of adopting new technology effortless.

“We believe in the difference a complete solution can make,” said Jacob Marash, Managing Director of Stem Audio. “By joining forces, we can truly serve any type of customer from any technical background with a complete portfolio for all types of environments, whether it requires a fully integrated system or a solution you can install yourself.”

Stem Ecosystem solutions include wall and table speakerphones, along with a ceiling microphone that blends into any room and syncs with networked loudspeakers, as well as dedicated control systems for a complete audio package:

Stem Wall: Equipped with 15 microphones that perform beamforming, plus full-range speakers and subwoofers, the Stem Wall product ensures everybody has a voice.

Stem Table: Optimized for tabletops and flat surfaces, the Stem Table product is equipped with nine microphones that perform real beamforming and a downward-facing speaker for superior performance.

Stem Ceiling: A 100 microphone ceiling array comes with two mounting options (low profile or chandelier mode) and three-beam options for exceptional coverage in any meeting room.

Stem Speaker: Built to give users the freedom to expand sound to anywhere in the room, the Stem Speaker product is a PoE+ powered external speaker with three mounting options and a powerful driver for exceptional sound in any meeting space.

Stem Hub: When more than one Stem Ecosystem device is used in a room, the Stem Hub product enables multiple units to communicate with each other in the room and function more effectively as a solution. With USB Type B, ethernet, Dante, VoIP connectivity, and pluggable terminal blocks for external speakers, the Stem Hub product has all bases covered.

Stem Control: A dedicated touch controller that connects to the network with a single ethernet connection. The Stem Control product allows access to the Stem Ecosystem platform and remote management of an organization, or can be used as an in-meeting controller with video conferencing platforms. 

All Stem Ecosystem devices are networked PoE+ powered products. They are easy to install, with or without professional support.
